It is phosphorylated by mTORC1 at Ser150, Ser428, and Ser476 upon insulin stimulation (5).The GRB7 family of adaptor proteins consist of GRB7, GRB10 and GRB14, which all contain an amino-terminal proline-rich SH3 binding domain, followed by PH, PBS, and SH2 domains. Each member of the family has several splice variants (1). It has been reported that GRB10 interacts with many receptor tyrosine kinases (RTKs) as well as downstream signal molecules including Raf, Akt, and Nedd4 (1,2). Although it was originally thought that GRB10 is exclusively phosphorylated at serine residues (3), Src kinase family members have been shown to phosphorylate GRB10 at Tyr67 (4).

Abstract Ovarian cancer is among the most lethal of all malignancies in women. While chemotherapy is the preferred treatment modality, chemoresistance severely limits treatment success. Recent evidence suggests that deregulation of key pro- and anti-apoptotic pathways is a key factor in the onset and maintenance of chemoresistance. Furthermore, the discovery of novel interactions between these pathways suggests that chemoresistance may be multi-factorial. Ultimately, the decision of the cancer cell to live or die in response to a chemotherapeutic agent is a consequence of the overall apoptotic capacity of that cell.

Marc Ladanyi summary: Cheung and colleagues demonstrate that amplified CRKL can function as a driver oncogene in lung adeno- carcinoma, activating both RAS and RAP1 to induce mitogen-activated protein kinase signaling.

  • And Sepsis-Induced Lung Inflammation and Mediates Myd88
    The Journal of Immunology Caveolin-1 Tyr14 Phosphorylation Induces Interaction with TLR4 in Endothelial Cells and Mediates MyD88-Dependent Signaling and Sepsis-Induced Lung Inflammation Hao Jiao,*,†,1 Yang Zhang,*,†,1 Zhibo Yan,* Zhen-Guo Wang,* Gongjian Liu,† Richard D. Minshall,*,‡ Asrar B. Malik,‡ and Guochang Hu*,‡ Activation of TLR4 by the endotoxin LPS is a critical event in the pathogenesis of Gram-negative sepsis. Caveolin-1, the signaling protein associated with caveolae, is implicated in regulating the lung inflammatory response to LPS; however, the mechanism is not understood. In this study, we investigated the role of caveolin-1 in regulating TLR4 signaling in endothelial cells. We observed that LPS interaction with CD14 in endothelial cells induced Src-dependent caveolin-1 phosphorylation at Tyr14. Using a TLR4-MD2- CD14–transfected HEK-293 cell line and caveolin-1–deficient (cav-12/2) mouse lung microvascular endothelial cells, we demon- strated that caveolin-1 phosphorylation at Tyr14 following LPS exposure induced caveolin-1 and TLR4 interaction and, thereby, TLR4 activation of MyD88, leading to NF-kB activation and generation of proinflammatory cytokines. Exogenous expression of phosphorylation-deficient Y14F caveolin-1 mutant in cav-12/2 mouse pulmonary vasculature rendered the mice resistant to LPS compared with reintroduction of wild-type caveolin-1. Thus, caveolin-1 Y14 phosphorylation was required for the interaction with TLR4 and activation of TLR4-MyD88 signaling and sepsis-induced lung inflammation. Inhibiting caveolin-1 Tyr14 phosphoryla- tion and resultant inactivation of TLR4 signaling in pulmonary vascular endothelial cells represent a novel strategy for preventing sepsis-induced lung inflammation and injury.

As a corollary, inhibition of mitochondrial complex I (CI) and complex II (CII) by toxins 1‑methyl‑4‑phenylpyridinium (MPP+) and 3‑nitropropionic acid (3‑NPA) respectively, induced degenerative changes noted in such neurodegenerative diseases. We aimed to unravel the down‑stream pathways associated with CII inhibition and compared with CI inhibition and the Manganese (Mn) neurotoxicity. Genome‑wide transcriptomics of N27 neuronal cells exposed to 3‑NPA, compared with MPP+ and Mn revealed varied transcriptomic profle. Along with mitochondrial and synaptic pathways, Autophagy was the predominant pathway diferentially regulated in the 3‑NPA model with implications for neuronal survival. This pathway was unique to 3‑NPA, as substantiated by in silico modelling of the three toxins. Morphological and biochemical validation of autophagy markers in the cell model of 3‑NPA revealed incomplete autophagy mediated by mechanistic Target of Rapamycin Complex 2 (mTORC2) pathway.

  • Direct Interaction Between Calmodulin and the Grb7 RA-PH Domain
    International Journal of Molecular Sciences Article Direct Interaction between Calmodulin and the Grb7 RA-PH Domain Gabrielle M. Watson and Jacqueline A. Wilce * Department of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, Biomedicine Discovery Institute, Monash University, Wellington Road, Clayton VIC 3800, Australia; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +613-9902-9226; Fax: +613-9902-9500 Received: 7 January 2020; Accepted: 15 February 2020; Published: 17 February 2020 Abstract: Grb7 is a signalling adapter protein that engages activated receptor tyrosine kinases at cellular membranes to effect downstream pathways of cell migration, proliferation and survival. Grb7’s cellular location was shown to be regulated by the small calcium binding protein calmodulin (CaM). While evidence for a Grb7/CaM interaction is compelling, a direct interaction between CaM and purified Grb7 has not been demonstrated and quantitated. In this study we sought to determine this, and prepared pure full-length Grb7, as well as its RA-PH and SH2 subdomains, and tested for CaM binding using surface plasmon resonance. We report a direct interaction between full-length Grb7 and CaM that occurs in a calcium dependent manner. While no binding was observed to the SH2 domain alone, we observed a high micromolar affinity interaction between the Grb7 RA-PH domain and CaM, suggesting that the Grb7/CaM interaction is mediated through this region of Grb7. Together, our data support the model of a CaM interaction with Grb7 via its RA-PH domain. Keywords: Grb7; Calmodulin; RA-PH domain; SH2 domain; SPR 1. Introduction Growth receptor bound 7 (Grb7) protein is a cytoplasmic adapter protein that couples activated tyrosine kinase receptors to a nexus of downstream proliferative, migratory and survival signalling pathways [1,2].

In particular, critical roles of Grb7 in erythroblastic leukemia viral oncogene homolog (ERBB) family-mediated cancer development and malignancy have been intensively evaluated. The overexpression of Grb7 or the coamplification/cooverexpression of Grb7 and members of the ERBB family play essential roles in advanced human cancers and are associated with decreased survival and recurrence of cancers, emphasizing Grb70s value as a prognostic marker and a therapeutic target. Peptide inhibitors of Grb7 are being tested in preclinical trials for their possible therapeutic effects. Here, we review the molecular, functional, and clinical aspects of Grb7 in ERBB family-mediated cancer development and malignancy with the aim to reveal alternative and effective therapeutic strategies.

Janes ● James M. Murphy ● Isabelle S. Lucet Received: 20 March 2019 / Revised: 23 July 2019 / Accepted: 24 July 2019 / Published online: 12 August 2019 © The Author(s) 2019. This article is published with open access Abstract Eph receptors, the largest subfamily of receptor tyrosine kinases, are linked with proliferative disease, such as cancer, as a result of their deregulated expression or mutation. Unlike other tyrosine kinases that have been clinically targeted, the development of therapeutics against Eph receptors remains at a relatively early stage. The major reason is the limited understanding on the Eph receptor regulatory mechanisms at a molecular level. The complexity in understanding Eph signalling in cells arises due to following reasons: (1) Eph receptors comprise 14 members, two of which are pseudokinases, EphA10 and EphB6, with relatively uncharacterised function; (2) activation of Eph receptors results in dimerisation, oligomerisation and formation of clustered signalling centres at the plasma membrane, which can comprise different combinations of Eph receptors, leading to diverse downstream signalling outputs; (3) the non-catalytic functions of Eph receptors have been overlooked. This review provides a structural perspective of the intricate molecular mechanisms that 1234567890();,: 1234567890();,: drive Eph receptor signalling, and investigates the contribution of intra- and inter-molecular interactions between Eph receptors intracellular domains and their major binding partners. We focus on the non-catalytic functions of Eph receptors with relevance to cancer, which are further substantiated by exploring the role of the two pseudokinase Eph receptors, EphA10 and EphB6.
